Well, I think it goes back to what we were saying before, right? Which is, you know, I think most people finish at the superficial, which is follow through and say the thing you're going to do. I mean, I fail to follow through on things all the time. And sometimes I'm embarrassed and ashamed. And so I hide it or I'm not upfront or I sort of hedge it and be like, well, I kind of did it, you know?

And what I've learned about follow through is that really it's about managing expectations. And it's okay to say no. It's okay to miss a deadline. It's okay to fail. As long as you give ample notice, and this is the important part, ask for help. And I think the missing part, which is so difficult and so vulnerable for a lot of people, which is I'm struggling here.

And sometimes we realize I don't have a process. Sometimes we realize I'm the wrong person. Sometimes we realize I said yes when I should have said no. Sometimes we realize I'm just stressed. I'm just overworked and I can't do it. Sometimes we realize I got stuff going on at home and I'm so distracted. Sometimes I got a bad night's sleep. There's so many reasons why we don't follow through.

That what I have learned is that the better the communication and the more comfortable we get asking for help, the irony is you'll get all the credit for all the follow through.

So you're 100% right, which is the definition of a leader is the awesome responsibility. A leader accepts the awesome responsibility to see those around us rise, right? Now, a position of leadership and being a leader are not the same thing.

You can have a position of leadership, which gives you rank and authority, but it doesn't mean we will follow you and it definitely doesn't mean we'll trust you. You and I both know many people who don't have a position of leadership, but they've made the choice to look after the person to the left of them and make the choice to look after the person to the right of them.

And we trust them and follow them anywhere. They are the leader. And so the first thing to do is be the leader you wish you had. And every great leader I've ever met, regardless of their position or rank, every single one of them considered themselves a student of leadership. None of them think of themselves as experts. And if you're a student of a leadership, that means you listen to podcasts.

It means you read books. It means you read articles. It means you have conversations with your friends or your mentors about these topics constantly. You're constantly in a learning mode. And so if you want to be a leader, You've got to study and be the leader you wish you had. Take yourself on starting tomorrow. I could be a better listener. I need to learn how to be more curious.
